MEMORANDUM FOR THE FILE
Re: Collaer's recommendation that U. 5. Public Health surgeon be detailed to Fort Missoula temporarily, pending the recovery of Dr. Cuomo.
I talked with Dr. Stewart and with Dr. Holt, requesting that a Public Health surgeon be temporarily detailed to Fort Missoula. Dr. Holt stated that he would look into the possibility to ascertain "whether a surgeon whose services could be spared could be found.
He called back some tine later, stating that at no place does the Public Health Service have a surgeon whose services could be spared at this time. The only suggestion he could make was that we contract with a local physician for such services.
